Politics

It has been declared openly and with conviction to the whole world that Iran is a hater of Israel and has intentions to destroy her. In 2005, Ahmadinejad, president of Iran, addressed the United Nations and blustered that the “occupying regime (referring to Israel) must be wiped off the map.” He declared that the “disgraceful stain” (Israel again) must be eliminated. (1)

On September 23, 2008 Ahmadinejad (see http://kpprobst.blogspot.com/2011/02/what-drives-ahmad-ahmadinejad.html) again addressed the General Assembly of the United Nations and declared Zionists to be murderers and criminals. He would later predict to the L.A. Times that the state of Israel is like an airplane experiencing engine trouble and plunging to destruction. “This will benefit everyone,” he said. In subsequent statements he has referred to Israel as a “germ of corruption (that) will be wiped off,” (2) as a “cancer that spreads through the body”, (3) and as a “kidney transplanted in a body that rejected it.” (4)

In addition to the inflammatory verbiage, The United Nations’ International Atomic Energy Agency has validated that Iran is attempting to make an atomic bomb to be fitted onto a missile capable of reaching Israel. Should Ahmadinijad succeed in developing such a weapon, would he use it? The question is not whether he would use it, the question is why are there so many nations critical of Israel defending herself? Why is there such a clamoring for a nation the size of New Jersey to continue to give more and more of her territory to their neighboring Arabs who own massive amounts of land? Why are western nations scowling at Israel for contemplating taking out Iran’s nuclear facilities when they all know that one nuclear hit on Jerusalem or Tel Aviv would pretty much mean annihilation.

The late Yasser Arafat once stated on Palestinian radio, “We will make the lives of the infidels hell - millions of martyrs marching on Jerusalem." Who can explain such vehement hatred against a fledgling country? Who in their right mind would deny Israel’s right to defend themselves against such evil? Why do so many nations struggle to choose sides on this issue? Is the vast amount of oil provided by the Arab countries so alluring that we lose our sense of true justice? Who in their right mind would support a country or terrorist group who would sacrifice their own children to satisfy their hatred? Former Prime Minister Golda Meir said, “"There won't be peace in the Middle East until Yasser Arafat learns to love Palestinian children more than he hates the Jews."

Why is there so much apathy toward the only democratic country in the Middle East struggling to maintain her very existence? It is obvious by now that President Obama is no lover of Israel. At the G-20 summit earlier this year he and President Sarkozy of France didn’t know they were being picked up on an open mic. “I cannot bear Netanyahu, he’s a liar.” Sarkozy said. Obama replied, “You’re fed up, but I have to deal with him every day.”

And so, how is it that Obama ‘deals’ with Netanyahu? Before answering that question please keep in mind that Obama has access to reams of sensitive and secret information that the rest of us are not privy to. He knows better than any the evil intent of Israel’s enemies. And yet, he expects Israel to surrender itself more and more to the people who are planning their destruction. It seems Israel is the one always expected to make concessions. Obama and his ilk are making the same mistake British Prime Minister Chamberlain made with Hitler prior to WWII. He is following a policy of appeasement that can only end in chaotic destruction. As Winston Churchill once said, “An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile—hoping it will eat him last.”

What a mystery! Is Obama so much of an empty suit that he fails to understand the history of these countries of the Middle East? Does he not appreciate the miracle of Israel’s existence? Does not the sole democratic nation in the region deserve our full support? Instead, Obama seems to sympathize with third world countries run by malevolent and brutal dictators. Why is Obama willing to threaten Israel’s right to exist as a state in order to promote the Palestinian hankering for a state? Does Obama not have a sense of how many Americans, both Jewish and Christian, he alienates because of his apathy toward Israel and his support of Israel’s genocidal enemies?

Oh that the haters of Israel would contemplate the sound of God’s voice found in Genesis 12:3 “I will bless those who bless you (Israel), and whoever curses you (Israel) I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you (Israel)." (5)
